I really enjoy my Colossal Squid, which today is 372 days old, weighs 170kg and has traveled 3348 km. Once a week or so I take a relaxing minute to check out its latest adventures. It provides a very pleasant learning experience with a connection to the very deep world out there.

Thanks “Squid Lover” – there is still heaps we don’t know about colossal squid, and giant squid.

By the way, the ‘San Aspiring’ is back down in the Ross Sea, Antarctica – the home of the colossal squid – now that the new toothfishing season is underway. You can follow the Captain’s Blog here. It would be good to know if they have seen any sign of colossal squid so far.

I think this is great for people who want to learn more about the giant squid. It is now my favorite animal and I like to read more about them. Also, to “sick of squid”, there is never enough of learning about a beautiful creature. We don’t even know that much and there is so much more to learn. Thanks.

The colossal squid has only been on display for a year and many people have not had a chance to see this magnificant creature from the deep. As we are a museum, we love things of all ages.
With regards to other exhibitions, we have a new exhibition which just opened on the weekend ‘A Day in Pompeii’ and if you are worried about exhibitions being old, this one has artifacts that are nearly 2000 years old.
